Got me a ribbon, bright blue ribbon for my hair

made me a promise, now I know he didn’t care
F# B F#
Touched by his first kiss, fooled by his first song
C# F#
The way he led me along with my ribbons undone
[Chorus]
F# B F#
Ribbons of blue now remind me of you

Ribbons of red are the way that my heart bled
F# B F#
Memories so clear are still ringing in my ears
C# F#
So I wanna send to you my old ribbons of blue

Memories so clear are still ringing in my ears
